My conduit is empty
Devoid of synaptic transmission
Inerted with asphyxiant
Cells of thought
left high and dry
Is it my time to die
.
Help me find the spigot
Help me turn on the water
The living water of life
with which helps each of us grow
Mind the gap and love will flow
I do not want to die
As I’ve traveled many mindful miles
on journeys of occupation
creating design information
while sharing plans with tradesmen
All this mental mind mapping
gets one lost in their mind
The ideas of empathetic feeling
can become so hard to find
Thus as an engineer ages
the greatest gift might be…
Asking Gods gift of gravity
to transition my intellectuality
from the mind to the heart
.
As I find both poetry and prayer
faltering when the mind is leading
Oh help me Lord, please guide my heart
Mind the gap and love will flow
I do not want to die.

Many poems and posts I write have a nature theme, with family or faith frame of reference. I hope you enjoy.
